Ileen (F)>

Ileen (female)

Can be spelt:Eileen (F) Ideen (F)
   
Source(s):
Private communication [DT]
Notes:

An Australian correspondent [DT] has noted the frequent and widespread use of this spelling of Eileen [q.v.] in Australian Pioneers Indexes in the 19th and early 20th centuries.

One child's 1869 birth and 1875 death records in the Victoria, Australia Pioneers Index show her name as Ideen but we believe that this could be a transcription mis-reading of "Ileen" floridly written by the same Registrar.
